For a Special Woman

Sometimes I make a quilt because I can't think of any other way to express what a person means to me. That is why I made this quilt, "Native Flair". (Pattern by Sindy Rodenmayer at www.fatcatpatterns.com)The recipient will be my daughter's doctor, a psychiatrist. I also made a quilt for her counselor several years ago. We found these two women after trying ten or twelve others who were not a good fit for us. They go above and beyond for their patients, giving of themselves until they must be physically and emotionally exhausted. They deserve comforting quilts!The recipient of Native Flair takes a great interest in Native American cultures, evidenced by the decor of her office. We can't wait to give her this quilt--just in time for winter snuggling!

About Me

Hi! I'm a middle-aged quilter in Middle America with an extra-large love for quilting and fabric. A quilter since 1985, I have made over 300 quilts myself and have worked with many other quilters on donations to Project Linus.
My dear husband and I were married in 1973. We have two adult children, a lovely daughter-in-law, and the two cutest granddaughters on the face of the Earth! We also serve as domestic staff for a senior citizen cat, Quincy.
Quilting is a huge part of my daily life, and I look forward to sharing it with you.
